Maou & Pals!: OOC

Welcome. This is the OOC for Maou & Pals, a lighthearted RP based loosely in the Type-Moon universe. It is a very casual/comedic centered RP, so it is mostly character driven with arcs instead of a single overarching plot. Sign-ups are perpetually ongoing, so go ahead and join in, even if you just want to participate in or create a single arc!

The current setting is a somewhat post-apocalyptic world as you know it. Magic has been introduced to the general public. Although technically all countries are allied to the Demon King, about half of the world is on the side of the Rebels. Rebels are not actively ostracized, but the slightest resistance can lead to an all out assault by part of a nearby Maou's Army. However, it is seen as extremely bad form for Maou's Army to lose, and unless there's a good excuse they'll be sent to be executed. As such, the world is in a form of odd Anarchy. In parts you can see Maou's army oppressing the Rebels, but in some other parts you can even see the Rebels oppressing the army. Basically anything goes in the lawless world, and the Dictator of such a world is the Demon King Maou.

Speaking of, The Demon King Maou and her Four Demon Generals reside in a large, imposing castle in the remains of Dusseldorf Germany. Past the ghost town where few venture, looms the dark castle. It is in perpetual gloom, even on the brightest of days. There is only one entrance, one exit. Crossing over a moat of blood is a pure steel drawbridge, one that is never drawn up and closed. Always inviting to those who wish to challenge the Demon King's rule. The entrance leads to the audience room, a dark torch-lit open space with massive columns. A single scarlet carpet rolls all the way to the massive Throne Room, an area lit in an ominous orange light by a dozen chandeliers. A throne of cold steel and bones sits against the wall, twenty steps leading up to in in a semi-circle.

That said, that's about those are about the only parts of the castle that are designed for the whole 'Demon Lord' schtick. The Audience Room and Throne Room have doors on the side that lead to various other locations of the 'Castle.' Unlike their dreary and atmospheric counterparts, the rest of the castle is designed as if it were a five-star hotel. That said, each Demon General had free-reign over the design of their own part of the castle. And the basement isn't really considered part of the actual castle by most...

Castle LayoutThe Castle has four floors: 3F, 2F, 1F, and the Basement.

Spoiler:

Third Floor

The Third Floor of the Castle is mostly for storage, as well as housing the Dragon Demon General, Zereleth. As well as storing important documents, the Castle's treasury is located up here, and is definitely something every thief would jizz his pants over. Dragons and riches do go together, after all~

Speaking of, Lord Zerelth's chamber is incredibly elegant for a rampaging beast. As if a giant lived there, large paintings and furniture littered the place, as well as smaller furnishings for guests. The bed was an intricate masterpiece, cleverly decorated as a smoking volcano where Zerelth would sleep on a cloud of ash. While there is no physical ceiling to this Demon General's room, a large magical barrier protects against the elements. Cleverly enough, because Zerelth is a dragon, he can fly through this barrier without any harm to himself or it. This allows him to freely leave whenever he wishes, while still allowing his room to remain comfortable. Indeed, while the room is grand and majestic, it is probably one of the Maid's most hated cleaning duties. I mean, that bed is huge. Do you know how hard it is to make every morning? And what if Lord Zerelth farted? Have you smelled a dragon fart? It's one of the world's rankest odors. Forget breathing acid, just shooting out gas from the other end may be more effective against enemies!

Treasury

------------------------------------------------Second Floor

The entrance/exit Audience room and Throne room are on 2F. Surrounding those two rooms are various rooms such as the Kitchen, Lavatories, dining room, living room, guest rooms etc. Dressed in only the finest of decorations and well-ventilated, it's hard to believe that these rooms are inside a depressing and gloomy castle. Maou's bedroom, small but well-furnished, is behind the Throne Room. It has a large bed that could probably host (and probably has hosted,) a ten person orgy.

Guest Room

------------------------------------------------First Floor

The First Floor hosts the remaining Three Demon Generals, as well as a large area for recreational rooms. Recreational rooms include: a Swimming Pool, a Spa, a Gym, and two well-equipped torture rooms. It even has a bar, open 24/7~ Wonderful!

Mechanical Demon James's area is built in a steampunk design, and is almost like you stepped into a sci-fi film. Various robots patrol the area, offering Maou-brand merchandise to visitors. If they decline, the robots then kill them and turn them into materials to make Maou-brand merchandise~ Cameras are spread around thickly everywhere, offering not even a space for a rat to hide. James claims its for security, of course, but he constantly tries to get Maou to visit so he can have hundreds of shots of her from hundreds of angles. Of course, each camera is also able to fire a laser beam and they can all combine into one giant robot to form a destructive Mecha!

James's Workshop

Demon General Nightmare's area is uncomfortably warm and stuffy, at least for his visitors. For him, it's a perfect temperature. His area is rather normally furnished, though lacking light somewhat. Designed with Victorian furniture and colors, it offers a well-to-do atmosphere. However, it lacks many occupants, and gives the feeling of a haunted house, or rather the house of a lonely demon in hell~ When giving the proper lighting however, the area is surprisingly beautiful. As everything is flame resistant, this area is at its most beautiful when Nightmare uses his powers.

Sitting Area

Demon General Pinkie's area is well defined by a bright and happy atmosphere. So much so that it's otherworldly, almost like you stepped into the Land of Oz. There's even a small candy workshop~. Indoor Gardens are aplenty here. Also, it is quite notable that there are no electronic devices here, as it's something faeries dislike. Light is provided entirely by windows and mana fueled lanterns, giving the place a surprisingly creepy feeling at night. In fact, there's rumors of a fairy called Willa Wonka who runs around at night, turning trespassers into candy...

Indoor Garden

------------------------------------------------The Basement

The Basement is yet another area that fits the fact that it's located inside a castle. Dusty, cobwebbed and moldy, the maids were told cleaning down there was optional. As there's little lighting and it hosts a bevy of monstrosities, very few maids actually clean. In addition to the location of cells for prisoners, this floor is the home of Larka Snow, a crazy but lazy mad scientist who seeks to create a series of monsters to release into the world. Maou likes to call her 'Professor Oak' because of this, though the joke is lost on many. GOTTA SPLICE 'EM ALL!

The only well-lit area is the laboratory, which glows with experiments soaking in cylinders filled with a glowing red goo. Said experiments make the Platypus seem like a normal creature. That said, if you played a lot of fantasy games, you'd be able to recognize a lot of them. Including lots of cute little adorable slimes! One can only wonder as to why she keeps them around but releases all the other monsters...

Speaking of, her bedroom is actually extremely well-decorated. Although it looks like a rag-tag bunch of furniture from beanie bags to silk-covered chairs, everything is made to be as comfortable as can be. Even the floor! Especially the floor! ... Probably shouldn't step on her 'toys' though. She'll get mad.

Oh don't worry, the closest he's getting to actually killing someone is accidentally dropping a few buildings. Also, never walk into a cave with him. Bad idea. Avalanches and landslides tend to like him too....

and if you're ever in a fight with him, he'll probably just forget and wander off after a while....
